Package: libvirt Version: 0.4.2-6 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi,
libvirt 0.4.2-6 and 0.4.4-2 have a bug in checking for open() failures: at line 482 of qemu_driver.c: if (!(monfd = open(monitor, O_RDWR))) { qemudReportError(conn, NULL, NULL, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("Unable to open monitor path %s"), monitor); return -1; } If open fails open() will return -1, and monfd having a non-zero value will be true, thus the failure won't be detected. This will translate in another error later. The solution is to use: if ((monfd = open(monitor, O_RDWR)) < 0) { Thanks, Guido -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (1001, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.0rx01 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
